Last Night at the Telegraph Club

A story of love and duty set in San Francisco's Chinatown during the Red Scare."That book. It was about two women, and they fell in love with each other." And then Lily asked the question that had taken root in her, that was even now unfurling its leaves and demanding to be shown the sun: "Have you ever heard of such a thing?"Seventeen-year-old Lily Hu can't remember exactly when the question took root, but the answer was in full bloom the moment she and Kathleen Miller walked under the flashing neon sign of a lesbian bar called the Telegraph Club.America in 1954 is not a safe place for two girls to fall in love, especially not in Chinatown. Red-Scare paranoia threatens everyone, including Chinese Americans like Lily. With deportation looming over her father-despite his hard-won citizenship-Lily and Kath risk everything to let their love see the light of day.

Jageres

De natuur is uit balans in de mensenwereld. De zon heeft al jaren niet meer geschenen en de oogsten mislukken. Erger nog: vreemde en vijandige wezens beginnen overal op te duiken. Om de crisis op te lossen worden de orakelstenen geworpen. Kaede en Taisin, twee zeventienjarige meisjes, worden uitgekozen om op een gevaarlijke reis te gaan naar Tanlili, de stad van de elfenkoningin. Taisin is een wijze, jonge vrouw vol magie. Kaede is juist heel aards, zonder ook maar iets bovennatuurlijks. En toch worden de lotsbestemmingen van de twee meisjes tijdens de missie naar elkaar toegetrokken. Ze beginnen zelfs verliefd op elkaar te worden. Maar het koninkrijk heeft slechts één jageres nodig om gered te worden, en wat daarvoor gedaan moet worden kan Kaede en Taisin voor altijd uit elkaar scheuren. Jageres is overladen met weelderige, Chinese invloeden en details geïnspireerd door de I Ching, en zit vol actie en romantiek.
